CHAPTER 116: A DAY WITH DR. MATHEW
It was 10:am, a work free day. Judy decided to schedule an appointment with Dr. Mathew. She knew hospitals operate 7 days a week.
Meanwhile, when she had phoned Dr. Mathew, he was resting at home but offered to meet her in the hospital.
“How are you feeling Judy? Dr. Mathew asked her after she decided to see him that Sunday morning.
Judy was standing by his window with her hands running through his curtains. She was excited and Dr. Mathew could sense it.
“Aren’t you going to offeer me a seat? ” she asked him after turning towards his direction.
“You know your way around here Judy. ” he told her with a smile.
“Where are you eye glasses? ” she asked him after noticing he wasn’t putting it on.
He smiled and asked her to seat. She sat opposite him on the big comfortable chair.
“I hope you wouldn’t storm outside here angrily today. ” he told her while trying to locate his pen.
Judy smiled and swung her head from left to right signalling she won’t.
“There will be no questions today Judy. ” he outlined.
“You just talk to me. ” he offered crossing his legs.
“So what shall we talk about? ” she asked him.
“Anything. Tell me anything on your mind. ” he replied.
“You seem very happy today. I like that. Why don’t you tell me why you are so excited. ” he added.
Judy smiled and said “I think I’ll love today’s session.
“Gideon and I made up. I’m back to his good page now. “said an excited Judy.
“Was there any fall out in the first place? ” he asked her.
“Yes. He became grumpy all of a sudden. He wouldn’t talk me. ” she said then smirked.
“It’s all because of Emma.” she added.
“And you guys are okay now? ” demanded the doctor.
“Yes. He apologized and I think we are fine. All I need to do is keep that bitch away from him. ” she replied.
“You are not taking notes today? ” she questioned Dr. Mathew who smiled and didn’t respond.
“So where do you take it from there? ” he further asked.
“I think this issue has been lingering for quite too long. Don’t you think so? ” Judy told Dr. Mathew while placing a finger on her jaw.
“Since your whole drama with Gideon is taking so long, why don’t you let it go? ” suggested the doctor.
“Why do you keep telling me to let go? ” she yelled.
“Because I care about you. ” replied Dr. Mathew in a calm manner.
“I can’t. I won’t. ” protested Judy.
“Or maybe you can. You don’t want to. ” he argued.
“We are talking about me remember? ” she reminded him.
“You can’t tell me how to feel. ” she said and he nodded.
“So where were we? ” she said.
“I remember! ” she hinted raising her left palm.
“I was complaining on how Gideon wouldn’t heed to my demands. ” she said.
“So tell me Dr. Mathew. Am I not attractive enough for Gideon?” she said pointing to herself from head to toe.
“I can make any man trip. Why is Gideon acting so difficult?” She lamented.
“Maybe Gideon isn’t meant for you. ” answered Dr. Mathew.
“He’s mine. ” she screamed and Dr. Mathew was forced to keep quiet.
“Wait till we strike. ” she boasted.
“We? ” Dr. Mathew asked.
Judy immediately began scratching her hair with one hand and was looking all over the place.
“What do we say about hurting people Judy? ” Dr. Mathew asked her.
“But I’m the one who is hurt here. ” she protested.
“Isn’t anyone concerned about my feelings? ” she retorted.
“Maybe you are the one who is not concern about your feelings. ” he pointed out.
“Bullshitt. ” was her reply.
“What happened to the pills I gave you? ” he asked her.
“I flushed them down the toilet. ” she replied and broke out laughing.
“Of what use are some dumb pills if I can handle things my way? ” she said.
“When was the last time you meditated? ” he asked again.
“How am I suppose to meditate when that bitch is all around the city taking over everything? ” she fired back.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
“Breathe in and out Judy. ” advised the doctor and she did.
“Don’t you think it’s high time you consider medication? ” he offered.
“What do you take me for? Some crazy bitch? ” she replied.
He was quiet. After few seconds of silence, Dr. Mathew spoke.
“Why don’t we go back to your highschool. Back to the day you hurt Tonia. ” he suggested.
“No. ” screamed Judy.
“The day you pulled her into the pool. * continued Dr. Mathew.
Judy immediately tightened her fists and shut her eyes. The doctor was observing her.
“How did you feel while you were drowning her? ” he asked her.
“I don’t know. ” Judy said with her eyes shut.
“I just wanted to get on with it. ” she added.
“And do you remember her pleading for mercy? ” he asked.
Judy said nothing. She opened her eyes and Dr. Mathew saw how teary her eyes were. He pulled out his notebook and wrote something down.
“How would you have felt If she died that day? ” he probed her.
“I don’t care. As long as I have want I want, I don’t care how anyone feels. ” declared Judy.
“Maybe you should start paying attention to your feelings now. ” he replied.
“Would you want to hurt Gideon? ” he asked her.
‘Never. ” Judy replied with a sincere tone.
“I’ll never hurt Gideon. I love him more than my life. ” she professed.
“What if you do something that hurts him. Maybe hurting Emma? ” the doctor said.
“Are you suggesting he still cares about that bitch? ” Judy yelled at the doctors face.
“How will you feel when you and Gideon don’t eventually work out? ” asked Dr. Mathew staring into her eyes.
“Don’t you dare say that again. ” screamed an angry Judy.
